Bug Description

Compiz lockscreen crashes as soon as I press CapsLock in password entry form. CapsLock is set a keyboard layout switch on my system, after the crash capitalization state is toggled (it usually is not).

I can reproduce the bug after apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && reboot.

The lockscreen & compiz is restarted but some information about open window definitely leaks out. Moreover, some "unauthorized input" may be successfully sent into the system from the keyboard while lockscreen is restarting.

Failed assertion is written to STDERR on death:
write(2, "terminate called after throwing an instance of '", 48) = 48
write(2, "boost::exception_detail::clone_impl<boost::exception_detail::error_info_injector<boost::bad_function_call> >", 108) = 108
write(2, "'\n", 2) = 2
write(2, " what(): ", 11) = 11
write(2, "call to empty boost::function", 29) = 29
write(2, "\n", 1) = 1

Core file and other apport data should be attached. OOPS ID is 7f15eaa6-54e8-11e6-a019-fa163ed44aae
